but once you got badly incapacitated, you said, I want to live?

That's if you can say: " I want to live". They are saying that she can't say : I want to live. But, they won't give her the therapy to be able to express that. Therefore, they see her as a non-person that she is not in there.. BS.. Somebody has got to stop this INSANITY..
I think that her body seeks to live. Everyday her body circulates blood, heartpumps it has a natural function toward life. Her mind want to live too. Even though she can't say she wants to live, her heart and mind seeks to continue toward life. How can anyone say that she doesn't want to live.. It's obvious she does.
When we are formed in our mothers womb the first fist size chunk of flesh=called a gut= seeks to eat. It forwards in life from that stage and eventually we form little bodies. My point is, all our basic functions and urges are programed to continue toward life.
It seems the news media are programming us toward this mind set of death with questionable poles containing questionable majority opinion.
I know of at least one case where a person did just that...they stopped the dehydration, went back to the judge (In FLORIDA!), who ruled she wasn't in her right mind (because of being delirous from thirst), and reordered the dehydration.
God was merciful. She died before they restarted.
We need to protect our handicapped. Too many project their fears of being handicapped on those who are, and would prefer to remove them from their sight. And if it means killing them so they feel better, well that's what they'll justify.
